SaaS – AI-Driven Data Analytics for Small Businesses
Objective
BlazeSQL was ready to enter the market with its AI-powered SQL-free data platform, but lacked a clear messaging framework, ICP alignment, and scalable acquisition strategy. Stratigia was brought in to lead the Go-To-Market (GTM) effort—shaping product positioning, crafting launch campaigns, and creating an inbound engine to convert interest into revenue.

- Positioned BlazeSQL as the only AI analytics tool that eliminates the need for SQL or analysts, built specifically for small businesses
✅ Website Messaging & Offer Structure
- Rewrote core website sections with emphasis on simplicity, automation, and decision-making speed
- Highlighted real-world use cases and built offer frameworks around free trial → guided demo → annual plans with onboarding support
✅ Landing Pages & Lead Funnels
- Developed ICP-specific landing pages targeting AI for SMB analytics, no-code dashboards, and Excel/BI replacements
- Included lead magnets like templates, email report samples, and case studies to accelerate signup
✅ Email & Content Launch Campaigns
- Executed email launch sequences with product walkthroughs, competitive positioning, and upgrade prompts
- Created blog content and product explainers that supported launch traffic and demo requests
✅ Software Directories & Brand Discovery
- Listed BlazeSQL on major directories including G2, Capterra, and Product Hunt with optimized profiles and structured CTAs
✅ Early Inbound & SEO-Led Growth Integration
